    Popped in to Candy Lab temple bar, they're behind the counter.

    And yes, it does use "high fructose corn syrup" - still tastes damn good.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,127 ✭✭✭✭Leeg17


    Wesht people - They sell it in CandyLand, or online at Candyland.ie

    :D

    €1.50 a can.

    Is Temple Bar the only place in town to buy it? (yes, that town as in Dublin City)

    Bit of a bump, but hopefully will be appreciated: I'm enjoying a can of it now, bought in the off-licence/shop part of Gleeson's pub in Booterstown, Dublin. I knew they'd loads of imported stuff but only noticed this sweet nectar yesterday.

    They seemed to have crates of 12 cans or just loose from a fridge. Such a fantastic drink.

    I presume the American, the difference doesn't particularly phase me.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,207 ✭✭✭miralize


    anywhere to buy this in the West (preferrably Limerick)? Does amazon deliver VC to Ireland?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,821 ✭✭✭phill106


    I saw some in a sweetshop in shannon town centre last week if that helps. The one near supermacs, they had that and rootbeer in the window.


  • Registered Users Posts: 851 ✭✭✭PrincessLola

    Just get some vanilla essence. Couple of drops into a regular coke and you got the real deal. Cheaper too.

    Bought a can and a bag of Peanut butter M&M's during the good weather and headed down to Spanish Arch to drink it and chill; it wasn't funny the number of people that approached me asking where I got it!

    Candy Land seriously owe me commission.....or a free can at least!

    Mine wasn't very cold and went warm rather quickly, this stuff tastes pure mank when its not icey cold.

  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 12,534 Mod ✭✭✭✭Amirani


    This place on Dame Street has some: http://www.mrsimmsireland.com/


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,569 ✭✭✭✭ProudDUB


    Saw some in the garden centre in Powerscourt last week. The one in Wickla, not the Townhouse off Grafton St. They had a shelf by the door selling some America food products, presumably for all the visiting Yanks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,386 ✭✭✭Killer Wench


    Vanilla coke can be hard to find here. I believe that they still make coke with lemon but that is like the holy grail. What I really miss is Sprite Remix. It was like drinking gummy bears. :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,037 ✭✭✭Nothingbetter2d


    After yearning for Vanilla Coke yesterday (I loved the stuff), it has come to my attention that the coca cola site has relisted Ireland as a seller of Vanilla coke.

    So if anyone can find any vanilla coke in a shop, or lying around, report in! :D

    i used to love the cherry coca cola

    Got a can of vanilla coke zero in Mrs Duffy's in Limerick. Only one can when I was there last week, but they could have more in the back.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,505 ✭✭✭ArtyC


    Absolut vanilla vodka is the easiest answer


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 884 ✭✭✭_Godot_


    The sweet shop on West Street in Drogheda has it last time I was in there.

    Great, sure enamel is overrated.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5 StephanR


    Vanilla coke is now available in Mr. Duffy's Sweet Shop in Limerick... It's €1.75 a can but so worth it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 332 ✭✭Kali_Kalika


    Dealz (Golden Island Shopping Centre) in Athlone ALWAYS has it, I dont think I've been in there and not left with a can or two :) Guilty pleasure from home (one of a few oreos included that have made it over)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 85,182 ✭✭✭✭Overheal


    Its funny this thread should be bumped: I referenced this thread in conversation today when a girl I worked with was drinking a vanilla coke at work. She says she gets them at Bi-Lo for $12 for 4 12-packs - thats $0.25 a can :eek:

    Time to make my teeth rot


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,039 ✭✭✭face1990


    Spar in Shanowen (Santry, Dublin) had them a little while back. Might be sold out by now, but they seem to order it in every now and again.

    That's good to hear. Every time I go in they seem out of stock of it.
